Criminal – Narcotics offense – Career criminal

Where an appellant has challenged his conviction for intent to distribute and distribution of cocaine and his sentencing as a career criminal to 180 months of incarceration to be followed by 10 years of supervised release, we hold that his challenge must fail, as no merit exists to his claims of ineffective assistance of counsel, abuse of discretion in continuing the relevant sentencing hearing, sentencing factor manipulation and imposition of an unreasonable sentence.
